Is the BMW Sport Steptronic's fuel economy as good as is claimed?

BMW 320d Sport Steptronic - is the fuel economy as good as they say? I'm looking at one tomorrow.

The tested economy figures at www.honestjohn.co.uk/realmpg show: EC fig: 53.3mpg; average fig: 43.9mpg; range: 38.9 – 47.8mpg.

Real MPG enables you to register the fuel economy you are actually getting against your make and model of car, its engine and type of transmission.

Every time you enter an average consumption figure against your car, the overall average automatically adjusts to reflect it.
